Deadline for Ammar Popular filmfest extended

Ammar Popular Film Festival has extended the deadline for submissions.

Held in Iran, the submission deadline for the ninth edition of the Ammar Popular Film Festival has been extended until December 1, 2018.

The Ammar Popular Film Festival goes against promotion of “individualism and extreme enjoyment without caring about the society's troubles and other human suppression,” the event’s official website notes.

The festival also enjoys an international version which aims “to raise real awareness and responsibility among the general public,” the website reads, adding the event’s mission is to create an atmosphere in which independent filmmakers and thinkers can gather together.

The 9th edition of the event is slated for December 27, 2018 – January 6, 2019.
